FELIX, J.:

Sometime in 1950 Felix Semañada, alias Semanada, alias Commander Dante, a young boy of 17 years of age, joined the Hukbalahap organization, which was composed of 4 units, namely, the organization, the contacting, the liquidation and the courier groups, and Semañada was assigned to form part of the latter group, whose duty was to deliver letters and messages. Apparently, Felix Semañada was unhappy and discontented and oftenly scolded by his parents, so he easily yielded to the propaganda of the Hukbalahap organization, for he did not have the opportunity to obtain any academic schooling except up to Grade II.
